Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules still apply.

  • This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
  • While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
  • Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.

If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

    Original post 
Since Thor and now Captain America came out this year, I wanted to get what Tropers thought of the concept and execution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in general. Personally I love the idea and wonder why this idea hasn't been seriously tried before. It sorta seems to me like the DCAU in movie form (And well, ummm, with Marvel), and really 'gets' the comic book feel of a shared universe while not being completely alienating.

I just realized: unless you go to see Infinity War in theaters first day, it's going to be almost impossible to avoid learning the subtitle for Avengers 4.

Do you mean because of the end credits, where it says "The Avengers Will Return In...."?

Would be cool if the movie ended with Thanos getting all of the Infinity Stones and the last scene is him snapping his fingers.

And then the end credit message says, "The Avengers Will Return?"

Dunno what the policy is on sharing fan-videos here. It's also kinda funny that it has nothing to do with The Thunderbolts, just like how Defenders had nothing to do with The Defenders.

It sort of does; just not any of the popular Thunderbolts runs.

Nearly the entire roster in that preview image save for Bucky is pulled straight out of a recent run, where General "Thunderbolt" Ross decided to put together a black ops kill-squad by press-ganging some of the deadliest Marvel characters into service.

It was really stupid. Also, the only thing it had in common with the Thunderbolts was the name - which, itself, was based on Ross's nickname and not any deliberate connection to the Thunderbolts team.

Didn't that run also have the Leader (who was also red for some reason) in it?

Still a pretty well edited fan trailer though. I dug it.
